I sat in on another Gamers With Jobs podcast, and it was really nice to be able to do so. Wasn’t feeling my best last week around that point, and the goodjers welcomed me with open arms. Thanks guys!

Episode 95 – July 30th, 2008

PixelJunk Eden, 1942: Joint Strike, Everquest 2 … Wait, What?, The Rise of Cooperative Gaming, Your Emails and more! This week Michael Zenke joins us as we bring cooperative gaming under the microscope. We mostly try and convince Sean to play with us … and we’ll probably end up winning that argument by default. Just give it a couple years.

Gamers with Jobs Conference Call Episode 92 – July 9th, 2008

A New Audio Sponsor From Mick Mize, Playing D&D 4.0 Online, The Cross-Pollination of RPG Gaming, Diablo III, Your Emails and more!

This week Michael Zenke joins us as we educate our listeners in the finer points of pen and paper roleplaying games, the crossover with video gaming and what kind of D&D 4.0 games we’d like to see. We also tackle some saucy new emails on Spore, Diablo III, tossing rabbit’s salad and more.

Hard to keep the harshness of a ’shut up’ in there, Darren and Karen are such gracious hosts.

I went back! Again! Yes, for real – I’m on SUWT again. I guess I’m a pleasant guest? Join us as we chat about Living Legacy, and the pros and cons of a fundamentally unbalanced design scheme.

I sat in on Shut Up We’re Talking this past weekend, and the result is available for your listening pleasure over at the VirginWorlds site. Primarily we chat about MMO malaise, and how I’m a snooty bastard that hates fun.

Seriously, though: Last week I was thinking that this whole “I’m not really digging Conan” vibe was just me being a snob, but then I kinda-sorta got a taste of real game evolution. And now … I dunno. Gonna be hard to go back to Hyboria. Or Azeroth, for that matter.

I’m thinking in the meantime I’ll try rolling a healer class, see if that helps. Maybe it’s just that tanking isn’t my thing. We’ll see. Regardless, go check out the show and make sure to stay all the way to the end. Allll the way. Because me + embarrassing moments are always fun.

For once I was over in the Goodjer neck of the woods, and I was actually talking about MMOGs! So I can post it here and not feel all guilty! Hooray! Ahem.

AoC and the hypemachine, this week on the GWJ conference call.

This week a very tired Shawn Andrich (stupid Age of Conan) slacks off on the show notes so he can go to bed. On the podcast we discuss hype, Age of Conan, why Michael Zenke is awesome and your sumptuous emails.

This past weekend I sat down with the Gamers w/Jobs crew to talk Age of Conan, and that Grand Theft something-er-other game that seems to be very popular these days.

Age of Conan, Mario Kart, Grand Theft Auto IV, Rob Off The Rails, Your Emails and more! Michael Zenke joins us for our in-depth impressions of Grand Theft Auto IV. Does Sean still hate it? Will the vein on Rob’s forehead burst? Can Michael inject some sanity into the conversation?!

The answer? Probably not. But it was fun to try.

I had the inordinate pleasure of sitting in on Shut Up We’re Talking #25. Darren and newly-dubbed co-host Karen were incredibly kind to have me on again, despite the rude and disreputable way I acted on show #17. 

I got to talk about my deep non-homosexual manlove for Van Hemlock, because he was on the show with us! So close and yet so far. I had a great time and I really needed it; haven’t laughed that hard in a while.

Thanks again for having me, Darren and Karen. Hope you’ll give it a listen.
